The suspect, Donald Bergeron, 19, of Elmwood, and his roommate, Brandon Fontenelle, 18, went to the residence to reclaim some property they believed the victim had taken.

That property included prescription drugs, cash and a digital camera the roommates noticed missing after the unidentified victim left their apartment, located at 5123 Citrus Blvd., earlier in the day, Dyess said.

The victim allegedly returned the property to an angry Bergeron as they stood outside of the Green Acres residence, an arrest report said. Fontenelle waited in the driver's seat of a nearby car.

But Bergeron allegedly told the victim, "This ain't over. I got something for you," and retrieved a shot gun from the vehicle, the arrest report said.

Bergeron chased the victim back inside of the house and pointed the shotgun at him. That's when the victim armed himself with a BB gun and opened fire, striking Bergeron multiple times in the chest, Dyess said.

Bergeron ran out of the house, allowing the victim a chance to close and lock the door and call for help. Deputies arrived to find Bergeron and Fontenelle still outside home, the report said.

Authorities recovered the shotgun which was not loaded, Dyess said. No drugs were found at the scene.

Bergeron was taken to a local hospital where he was treated and released, Dyess said. He and Fontenelle were booked with aggravated burglary. Fontenelle was still being held at the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Gretna on a $25,000 bond. Bond information for Bergeron was not available.
